Recipe: Protein-Packed Hormone-Balancing Omelette

Servings: 1

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

• 3 medium eggs (21g protein)

• 30g feta cheese, crumbled (4g protein)

• 50g baby spinach (rich in magnesium)

• ¼ avocado, sliced (healthy fats for hormone support)

• 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil (anti-inflammatory)

• ½ tsp turmeric (supports hormone balance)

• ¼ tsp sea salt

• ¼ tsp black pepper

•1 tbsp pumpkin seeds (zinc for hormone health)

Instructions

Whisk the eggs in a bowl with turmeric, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisking well ensures a fluffy, evenly cooked omelette.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Olive oil is a great source of monounsaturated fats, which support hormone production and heart health.
Add spinach to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Spinach is high in magnesium, which helps reduce stress hormones and improve insulin sensitivity.
Pour the eggs over the spinach and cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the edges to set before flipping or folding.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top and fold the omelette in half. Feta provides protein and calcium, which are essential for bone health, especially during perimenopause.
Serve with sliced avocado on top and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds for an extra boost of healthy fats and minerals.
